Chapter 139
"With my power… I can have him live for maybe a few hours…"
Giwon spoke carefully even when he should've made it shorter .
'It is too late . '
"Unless he has his own regeneration power, there are only two ways to heal him . "
Both were almost impossible to achieve .
One was to find a potion that had exceptional healing power .
Or the second was to find a healer with great power .
It was needless to say how hard it was to find a good healing potion . The only thing that might have a chance to heal Bill at this point was an SS-rank potion . Giwon had only seen such thing once throughout his entire life, including the previous one .
It was even more complicated to find a healer . Even Dohyuk's Nature that healed him, now required a huge amount of energy to heal himself as his body had grown .
In that regard, Bill was too powerful . It was pointless unless the healer was at least strong as Giwon or Yuri .
"Of course… there are healers who can heal by paying life energy . "
However, Giwon knew Dohyuk would never agree to that healing method .
'So, we should just…'
'Forget it and let him concentrate on healing himself . '
Giwon looked at Dohyuk . He could now see why Heeyun was so pale in search of equipment when she ran into the city . Giwon already spoke to her that Dohyuk had equipment in hand to heal himself, but she didn't care .
She was right .
Dohyuk digested a B+ rank item, but no part of his body was okay .
However, Dohyuk did not care about himself . He was looking down at Bill .
"Giwon . "
"Yes, Boss . "
Dohyuk then pointed at a direction .
"I haven't combined into one yet . "
"That me is much worse in shape . You should go take care of me until Heeyun brings me more to digest . "
Giwon then quickly ran in that direction .
'It's… much…'
Giwon then found Dohyuk . He was now stuck together with the melted metal . He was in such terrible shape that Giwon gasped .
The other Dohyuk was looking down at Bill . What Giwon just said was that Bill was going to die . If he said it, then it was that . Dohyuk had accepted it already . But he was felt hollow for reaching such an end . That's why he looked down at Bill with no hope .
Bill opened his eyes and spoke .
"…It feels weird . "
It was a similar, but different voice from before .
"It feels like crap, but it's not too bad . "
"Of course . " Dohyuk said, "You were out of your mind, and came back . Although I can only guess how that feels . "
"I see . "
Bill laughed . It was for the first time Dohyuk heard him laugh .

"Maybe I'm the first . But I won't be the last . I don't think he turned everything back only to corrupt me…"
It was certain that who he meant .
Casita .
The Lord God that the Phenomenal Nine killed at the end .
"Dohyuk . "
Bill was now his normal self — the one with the clear mind, and all the memories .
"The answer might be to succumb . "
"I know what you want to say . Unlike me, you have not changed a bit . "
"…Then why?"
"Because you will not change . It was always so . You were the most solid . That's why…"
Bill coughed, blood splattering out from his mouth . Dohyuk did not stop him from speaking .
"Everyone followed you . We never doubted you . We trusted your direction to be our answer . "
Dohyuk listened carefully to each word .
"You might not remember, but we were desperate . Casita isn't like anyone else . He is not bound by the system . His power is not just infinitely strong . He is… infinite . "

"But we succeeded . "
"The process it took… is a hell to walk again . "
Bill looked at Dohyuk .
"Yes… but you will get there eventually . And just like last time, you won't do it alone . You will have people following you… and maybe it's only me who couldn't resist out of those nine . "
There was no telling however, that it would end up same this time around . Casita had turned the game upside down . There was possibility of a third, or even fourth game .
"But even then…"
"You will not give up . " Bill answered instead . "Even you start over and over again . . . I know you will never give up . That is the you that I know . "
There was the possibility of a third, a fourth and maybe even more . And every time it reset, there was chance for the world to be more harsh . Maybe every one of the Phenomenal Nine would start to become corrupt except Dohyuk .
Even then, he will not give up .
That's why Bill was saying it will be easier to give up . It wasn't based off logic . It was out of sadness . Sympathy toward a friend . Dohyuk recognized this from Bill's eyes .
"You don't need to do that . "
His voice was now dying out . He even had to repeat himself as he couldn't voice it out .
"Corruption… even when corrupted… I trust that there is a difference . I was a monster just until while ago, but I was different . You… I trust that you will be different even when you are corrupt . "
"No, I don't think so . "
Dohyuk spoke hesitantly . "Even if it's different… corruption is corruption . There's a chance that I will become more of a monster than anyone else . "
"…I see . " Bill then spoke sadly, "You have not changed a bit . "

"…I think I was just a bit more lucky than you . "
"No . Even if you were in my position, you would not have ended up like me . "
Before Dohyuk could say no, Bill raised his hand . And on the twisted hand, Dohyuk felt energy being focused onto the hand .
"What… did you do?"
"I set them free . If I die… you will kill those people that I placed my metal in"
His men that he controlled . Bill had set them free from his reign with his last remaining power .
"If you can… lead them . They are used to succumb to a strong man . They will be of help . And…"
Bill then turned toward the city .
"…Bring the boy here . "
"Boy?"
Was there a boy inside the city that Bill knew about? Bill knew that Dohyuk had a method to utilize his dying body to the fullest .
"I cannot help you, and you have no way to save me . But you have a method to kill me in the best way possible . "
That's when Dohyuk realized .
The boy .
He didn't know how Bill knew him, but there was one boy whom Bill was speaking of .
"Call him, Dohyuk . "
And with that, Bill placed his hand over his heart .
"My heart . I will give my first Nature to you . "Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
